NCT ID NCT06582719
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether an AI-based counseling program on a smartphone can help women with gestational diabetes manage their condition. 80 pregnant women will either get standard nutrition advice or AI-powered guidance. The goal is to see if the AI approach leads to healthier birth weights and fewer newborn intensive care stays.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- GPT-based counseling delivered via smartphone app
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a convenient, scalable way to help manage gestational diabetes and potentially reduce complications for mothers and babies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study that is currently suspended. The AI advice may not be as effective as in-person counseling, and results may not apply to everyone.
